When he finally realized it, Dong Shaoyang's face turned bright red and his throat rattled as if he were stuck with old phlegm, which made his scalp tingle and his teeth sour.
With a popping noise, he spat out blood, bleeding on his pillow.
With the release of Qi, he felt relief in his chest and recovered from the internal injuries caused by Lou Cheng. His head cleared instantly, and he realized that his arrogance and ego had inflated in the last year.
"I see..." He took a deep breath and said, eyes determined and strong, "I will find the gap and improve myself!"
Admittedly, Lou Cheng did have a gift for fighting and a quick mind. When he didn't take the advantage of a favorable environment to beat him and instead was forced to compete for endurance with his opponent, he was doomed to fail.
